Exhibit 99.1

OUTERWALL INC. ANNOUNCES 2013 SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

Company Delivers Solid Results, Executes on Initiatives to Drive Second Half Growth;

Completes Acquisition of ecoATM

BELLEVUE, Wash.—July 25, 2013—Outerwall Inc. (Nasdaq: OUTR), formerly Coinstar, Inc., today reported financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2013.

“We continued to make good progress on our key initiatives that will begin to deliver for us in the second half of 2013 and drive the business over the long term. Our overall performance for the quarter was solid and we are focused on executing in the second half,” said J. Scott Di Valerio, chief executive officer of Outerwall Inc. “We added ecoATM to the Outerwall family with the acquisition of the remaining interest. We are confident that ecoATM’s innovative, environmentally-minded business model will resonate with today’s technology savvy consumers and drive additional profitable growth for our stockholders in the years to come. Redbox eclipsed 50% of the physical rental market for the first time during the second quarter, and we expect rentals and revenue per kiosks to exceed 2012 levels in the second half of the year as stronger content and enhanced marketing efforts drive improved customer frequency and retention.”

On July 23, 2013, Outerwall completed the previously announced acquisition of ecoATM for an aggregate purchase price of $350 million, inclusive of the company’s 23% stake, resulting in a cash payment of $262.9 million upon closing, which includes certain purchase adjustments for working capital. ecoATM provides an automated self-serve kiosk system to purchase used mobile phones, tablets and MP3 players for cash, with approximately 650 ecoATM kiosks currently in the marketplace.

Outerwall’s 2013 second quarter and six months financial highlights included:

	2013		2013
	Second Quarter		Six Months
•    Consolidated revenue	$	554.2 million	$	1,128.9 million
•    Net income	$	46.9 million	$	69.5 million
•    Core adjusted EBITDA*	$	124.5 million	$	228.7 million
•    Diluted earnings per share	$	1.64	$	2.42
•    Core diluted earnings per share*	$	1.91	$	2.84
•    Net cash provided by operating activities	$	29.6 million	$	70.7 million
•    Free cash flow*	$	(5.9) million	$	1.9 million

* Refer to Appendix A for a discussion of non-GAAP financial measures, including the exclusion of certain non-core items.

“Our results for the second quarter underscore our commitment to effectively manage profitable growth while driving returns for our stockholders,” said Galen C. Smith, chief financial officer of Outerwall Inc. “We continued to deploy our capital in a thoughtful and disciplined way, as demonstrated by the acquisition of ecoATM, without sacrificing our focus on managing the capital structure. In the quarter, we retired more than $86 million in principal of our existing convertible notes and repurchased nearly $25 million of our common stock, representing close to 450,000 shares.”

Revenue for the second quarter of 2013 increased 4.1% to $554.2 million compared with $532.2 million for the second quarter of 2012, driven primarily by Redbox segment revenue of $478.5 million, which increased 4.5% compared with $458.0 million for the second quarter of 2012, attributable primarily to new Redbox^® kiosk installations. Coinstar, formerly known as Coin, segment revenue was $74.5 million for the second quarter of 2013, compared with $73.9 million for the same period last year.

Operating income for the second quarter of 2013 was $70.3 million, which resulted in an operating margin of 12.7%, compared with operating income of $69.8 million and an operating margin of 13.1% in the second quarter of 2012.

Net income for the second quarter of 2013 was $46.9 million, or diluted earnings per share of $1.64, compared with $36.9 million, or $1.11 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2012. Core diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2013 was $1.91, excluding non-core adjustments of $0.27 per share, compared with $1.25 per diluted share, excluding non-core adjustments of $0.14 per share in the second quarter of 2012.

Several factors contributed to higher than expected diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2013, including:

• $0.47 related to an update in our method for amortizing content costs in the Redbox segment to better align costs with revenue which reduced the product costs recognized in the quarter. The benefit will largely be expensed throughout the second half of 2013; and

• $0.62 related to the sale of certain NCR kiosks through a wholly owned subsidiary which generated a one-time tax benefit; which were partially offset by

• A loss in the amount of $0.04 based on an updated purchase price allocation for the NCR acquisition and the costs associated with the sale of certain of these NCR kiosks; and

• $0.05 of incremental interest expense associated with our repurchase of $48.4 million in face value of convertible notes.

Net cash provided by operating activities in the second quarter of 2013 was $29.6 million, compared with $139.3 million in the second quarter of 2012. Cash capital expenditures for the second quarter of 2013 were $35.5 million, compared with $38.7 million in the second quarter of 2012. Free cash flow for the second quarter of 2013 was $(5.9) million, compared with $100.6 million in the second quarter of 2012. The negative free cash flow in the quarter reflects the impact of several working capital items including cash tax payments of $44.2 million, a reduction in accounts payable of $41.0 million due to timing between quarters and reflective of seasonality, along with $4.0 million of incremental interest associated with early retirement of our convertible notes.

During the second quarter, the company retired $86.6 million in principal of its 4.0% Convertible Senior Notes through repurchases of $48.4 million and $38.2 million in conversions by investors for $107.1 million, excluding accrued interest, in cash and the issuance of 255,499 shares of common stock. The aggregate outstanding principal remaining was $53.7 million at the end of the second quarter.

Also during the quarter, the company repurchased approximately $24.9 million of its common stock, representing approximately 447,500 shares at an average price of $55.66 per share. As of June 30, 2013, there was $322.8 million remaining under the current board authorization for stock repurchases.

Guidance

Guidance for the 2013 full year and third quarter reflects, among other factors, Outerwall management’s expectations related to the following:

• The acquisition of ecoATM;

• The impact of selling certain NCR kiosks through a wholly owned subsidiary, which generated net cash proceeds of $11.8 million and generated a tax benefit of $17.8 million benefitting core diluted EPS by $0.62 for the second quarter of 2013;

2

• The change in method for amortizing content costs; and

• Interest expense related to the Senior Unsecured Notes issued in March.

For the 2013 full year, Outerwall management expects:

• Consolidated revenue between $2.372 billion and $2.475 billion;

• Core adjusted EBITDA between $507 million and $538 million;

• Core diluted EPS between $5.76 and $6.26 on a fully diluted basis; and

• Free cash flow between $211 million and $227 million.

For the 2013 third quarter, Outerwall management expects:

• Consolidated revenue between $604 million and $630 million;

• Core adjusted EBITDA between $129 million and $139 million; and

• Core diluted EPS between $1.36 and $1.51 on a fully diluted basis.

Appendix A

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP measures may be provided as a complement to results provided in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

We use the following non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our financial results:

• Core adjusted EBITDA;

• Core diluted earnings per share (“EPS”); and

• Free cash flow.

These measures, the definitions of which are presented below, are non-GAAP because they exclude certain amounts which are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our GAAP financial measures and may not be comparable with similarly titled measures of other companies.

Core and Non-Core Results

We distinguish our core activities, those associated with our primary operations which we directly control, from non-core activities. Non-core activities are primarily nonrecurring events or events we do not directly control. Our non-core adjustments include i) acquisition costs primarily related to the NCR Asset Acquisition and acquisition of ecoATM, Inc., ii) a gain on the grant of a license to use certain Redbox trademarks to Redbox Instant™ by Verizon and iii) income or loss from equity method investments, which represents our share of income or loss from entities we do not consolidate or control (“Non-Core Adjustments”).

We believe investors should consider our core results because they are more indicative of our ongoing performance and trends, are more consistent with how management evaluates our operational results and trends, provide meaningful supplemental information to investors through the exclusion of certain expenses which are either non-recurring or may not be indicative of our directly controllable business operating results, allow for greater transparency in assessing our performance, help investors better analyze the results of our business and assist in forecasting future periods.

Core Adjusted EBITDA

Our non-GAAP financial measure core adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before depreciation, amortization and other; interest expense, net; income taxes; share-based payments expense; and Non-Core Adjustments.

A reconciliation of core adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, is presented in the following table:

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,

(1) Includes both non-cash share-based compensation for executives, non-employee directors and employees as well as share-based payments for content arrangements.

Core Diluted EPS

Our non-GAAP financial measure core diluted EPS is defined as diluted earnings per share excluding Non-Core Adjustments, net of applicable taxes.

A reconciliation of core diluted EPS to diluted EPS, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, is presented in the following table:

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2013		2012		2013		2012
Diluted EPS	$	1.64	$	1.11	$	2.42	$	2.75
Non-Core Adjustments, net of tax:(1)
Acquisition costs		0.06		0.04		0.06		0.06
Loss from equity method investments		0.21		0.10		0.36		0.17
Gain on formation of the Joint Venture		—		—		—		(0.36	)
Core diluted EPS	$	1.91	$	1.25	$	2.84	$	2.62

(1) Non-Core Adjustments are presented after-tax using the applicable effective tax rate for the respective periods.

Free Cash Flow

Our non-GAAP financial measure free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities after capital expenditures. We believe free cash flow is an important non-GAAP measure as it provides additional information to users of the financial statements regarding our ability to service, incur or pay down indebtedness and repurchase our common stock.

A reconciliation of free cash flow to net cash provided by operating activities, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, is presented in the following table:

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
Dollars in thousands	2013			2012			2013			2012

Business Segment Information

(in thousands)

(unaudited)

As a complement to our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, we are providing the following information related to our business segments, which includes segment operating income (loss). Management, including our chief executive officer, evaluates the performances of our business segments primarily on segment revenue and segment operating income before depreciation, amortization and other, and certain share-based payments (“segment operating income”). We utilize segment revenue and segment operating income because we believe they provide useful information for effectively allocating resources among business segments, evaluating the health of our business segments based on metrics that management can actively influence, and gauging our investments and our ability to service, incur or pay down debt.
